Shoooot it's been a long time since I posted! I'm going to plead 'Super-busy-because-I-had-a-bunch-of-college-stuff-to-do-plus-a-choir-concert-where-I-played-my-uke-for-the-first-time-in-front-of-a-bunch-of-people-oh-my-goodness-I-haven't-updated-in-way-too-long-you-guys-probably-didn't-even-realize-I-am-now-the-proud-owner-of-a-ukulele!!!!'
Okay, quick update on the past few months: Obvs, I got a uke, my dad got my one for my birthday 'cause a friend of mine got me into the ukulele a year ago on the way to IYC'13, which brings me to IYC'14.
Oh. My. Goodness. Dude, God's power fell so heavily in that convention, lives were changed, this one person we brought with our youth group who had NEVER been in a Pentecostal service before in her ENTIRE life ALMOST got the Holy Ghost.
I got to see some old friends, hang out, worship God with everything I had, lost my voice for 2 weeks (in fact, I'm still kinda trying to get it back, don't tell my worship leader!!) and I have been changed. Man. Haha, you had to be there to really get what I'm saying.
Anyways, I also took this crazy 8-week Leadership course for college, complete with deadlines and everything. I'm used to a more self-paced slow-ish or fast-ish going thing, being homeschooled, you know? But oh my word, getting all of those assignments done BEFORE convention, haha, that was an interesting week full of almost all-nighters, lots of coffee, ya know.
So since summer's coming (cue the excited cheers of kids, teenagers and teachers everywhere) I was just curious. What're you looking forward to the most? Since I'm in college, I don't really get a break but I do get to do my college work at a slower pace, so that'll be great.
Oh yeah, and we can't forget one of the most important parts of a church teen's summer life: CAMP IS COMING UP, WHO'S EXCITED?!?! SHOW OF HANDS.
Oh. Oh, really? Just me? Aaaallllll righty then.
Anyways, recently, my family's been having a ton of late night bonfires chillaxin' out in the backyard with my pastor and his family. Oh, the awesomeness of living next door haha. I wouldn't trade if for anything.
I'm also looking forward to what God's gonna do during this summer. Summer means more time to hang out with people, more time for church activities and more time to just kick back and relax.
To all of you guys who're already out of school, (ya lucky ducks) have an awesome summer! And to the rest of you people who're still in school, hang in there, summer is coming!
God bless you guys. :) I love ya!
